What is an AI actor?

An AI actor is a hyper-realistic digital presenter that performs your script on camera — no filming, casting, or studio required. Each CraftStory AI actor is created in collaboration with a real, consenting professional actor, then brought to life by AI with natural lip-sync, facial expressions and gestures, speaking 30+ languages.

Why AI actors

A full cast, ready when you are

CraftStory's AI actors are created in collaboration with professional actors, so each one performs with a distinct personality and a wide range of emotions and gestures — not the stiff, robotic delivery of typical avatars. Choose from 100+ scenes, direct the camera with frontal and side views and full-body, medium, or close-up shots, and drop your actor onto any background. Every actor speaks 30+ languages, so you can film a global campaign without a crew, a set, or a single reshoot. Change the script, regenerate, and your presenter is instantly back on set.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Are there any AI actors?
Yes. CraftStory alone offers 100+ ready AI actors — realistic on-screen people you can cast in ads, tutorials and social videos. You can also create a new AI actor from a single photo, or a digital twin of yourself from about 15 seconds of phone video.
How long until AI replaces actors?
AI actors already handle high-volume, low-budget formats — UGC ads, product explainers, localization — where hiring talent for every variant is impractical. Film and brand-face work still belongs to humans; think of AI actors as an extra production lane, not a replacement.
What is an AI actor?
AI actors are lifelike AI avatars and spokespeople, created in collaboration with professional actors, each with a unique personality, emotions, and gestures. Pick one, add a script, choose a scene, and generate a studio-quality video.
Do I need my own photo or video?
No. AI actors are a ready-made cast — just choose an actor from the library and add your script. (If you'd rather use your own face, Model 2.0 turns your photo into a talking video.)
How much control do I have over the shot?
Full camera control: frontal and side views, full-body, medium, and close-up shots, and 100+ scenes you can place on any background.
Which languages are supported?
30+ languages with accurate lip-sync, so one script can become videos for audiences worldwide.
